I have never been to any Boarding School but I have lived in the hostel during college and still, I am living in a hostel styled PG.
I have created my own hacks to live here because it’s not always easy to live healthy and peaceful life in hostels.
Here are my Hacks for any hostel:
You may have very little space in your almirah, try to put your in a row or roll then into small size and place in row and column both.
Always keep good relations with the mess workers. It will help you save a lot of your money.
Pro Tip: I am working in a company and if I don’t use this hacks of mine then I need to spend more. Always ask for more breakfast.
I know people are not used to of eating in the morning but if you eat then you can eat 40% of the breakfast in the morning and 60% can be your lunch.
By this, I am saving around Rs. 4000 per month.Participate in the activities to make loyal friends. If you can make good local friends then it will help you a lot in bad times.
No need to take so much load of notebooks (fair and rough). You will find more cheap places near your school.
Feeling sleepy while your exams. Take a power nap. Listen Experience Calm or Music to improve focus, meditation & sleep..
In summers, if you don’t have a cooler or AC then fill a bucket of water and keep it near to your bed in your room. It will help to make your room cooler than before.
You can use your saucepan to press your clothes. Put hot water in the pan and cover it with its cover and use it.
Here are some of the hacks I used.
